Wordle began as a gift from engineer Josh Wardle for his partner, but it quickly gained popularity worldwide. Various fan-made versions have also emerged, such as Squabble, Heardle, Dordle, and Quordle. The game was eventually acquired by the New York Times.

When choosing a starting word, it's recommended to pick one with at least two different vowels and common consonants like S, T, R, or N. The Wordle archive, which included past puzzles, was previously available but is now only accessible to NYT Games subscribers. Turning on Hard Mode can add an extra challenge.

Today's Wordle is a 5-letter word starting with the letter S. It does not contain any double letters.
